!NOTES:Although there are two records that distinctly refer to him as Henry Cathey, there is the possiblity that both of them actually refer to Henry Calfee instead. That surname is sometimes spelled Calfey which can easily be misread as Cathey if one isn't careful;

!NOTES:This person is not a Cathey but a Cockley. However, a 1771 deed was mistranscribed in a published book as Cathey when it was actually Cakley, a badly spelled Cockley;
